I was always intimidated by cooking my own Asian food.  It seems so time consuming and intense.  Then I decided to be a big girl and give it a try.  Several years ago this was my first attempt recipe.  It was a hit and so yummy!  It will have your chopsticks dancing!  So, give it a shot and try something new.  -AF

Asian Marinated Beef

1/4 c soy sauce

1 T sugar

2 t sesame oil

1/2 c minced green onions

1 T minced garlic

1 T minced ginger

3 T sesame seeds, toasted

1 lb. flank steak

1 T vegetable oil

In a medium bowl, stir soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, onions, garlic, ginger, and 2 T sesame seeds.  Stir until sugar is dissolved.  Slice flank steak across the grain into thin slices.  Add steak to bowl, toss to coat and marinate for 15 minutes.  Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over med-high heat.  Add steak in one layer and sauté, turning until brown and cooked through.  Add steak to plate and sprinkle with sesame seeds.  Serve with rice.  I cook edamame to serve with this tasty meal.  Feel free to add extra soy sauce.
